Intermittent supply failure

For some reason, the program thought Umezu in the following set up was out of supply. When I saved the game and reloaded it, he was back in supply. (So I don't think a saved game here would help.) Immediately prior to the problem, Umezu was one hex to the south-east and in supply. He moved, and went out of supply. (Umezu's supply chain goes back to the Yangtze River Road. There are convoys back to Japan, and they weren't being touched.)

The bad thing here is when I move units and don't notice that they are disrupting as I move them. (If I were observant, I would see the DSR indicator on the move icon, but I am not observant.)

Changchun once went out of supply in a similar fashion; a load and restore fixed that problem, too.

I`m not sure it is a duplicate. I`ve noticed a couple of times when I move a stack with a HQ the entire stack gets disorganised. Could that be what happened here?
If I move just the HQ everything is fine. I`ll send a savegame if I can reproduce.

I see now that Umezu is not disrupted, just oos.

This bug was reported already. I agree it is a pain in the proverbial behind, when playing. I can only advise people to check the supply status before moving units. This seems only to happen around HQ's (and not always too). Saving the game and restoring it so supply is recalculated is at this moment the available work around...
